Eat glass and stare into the abyss

If you need inspirational words (to convince yourself to start a business), don’t do it. Said Elon.

If you’re discouraged to try something by someone telling you not to do it…then probably you shouldn’t do it. If your conviction is that feeble, then stop right there and consider to save yourself money, time and tears. Actually going through it will leave you broken.

Yes, broken. But here’s something to ease the pain: failure is rarely definitive.

So there it is: the cold, harsh truth followed by the hopefully, soothing truth.

It is only fatal when you don’t learn. And we are wired for learning.

Fear is the only thing that prevents us from executing one more time, and in this new iteration, with knowledge only developed by failing. The fear will always try trick us into thinking we can’t learn and that we can’t try again and again.

So bring me the yummi crunchy glass, I’ll be staring into the abyss until it shys away.
